- Place one hex nut into the hexagonal pocket inside the main bore.
- Slide the motor into the main bore with the encoder pins pointed in the same directions as the three holes.
- Thread the set screw into the center hole, but do not tighten.
- Slide one hex nut into each of the side pockets.
- Plug the encoder into its plug on the T1a electromechanical subsystem circuit board.
- Slide the motor mount along the motor until the mounting holes line up with the holes in the circuit board.
- Place a screw in each of the two outer holes and tighten.
- Tighten the set screw accessible via the middle hole.
